i have Jack hair plant growing in a mix of african violet soil, black potting mix, all with very low amounts of slow release nutes, aswell as bone & blood meal and a bit of han manure, i planted it as a baby in this mix as well as several other belladonna plants, the belladonna is fine today, but the jack is suffering dark yellow crisp on the edges of mostly older leafs , any help????

i think i was unerwatering..

Is the belladonna in the same exact soil and nutrient mixture?

yes the same, it is 1 week younger though and watered differently (it takes less water) i really hope this problem can be fixed, its spreading quickly on what is otherwise a very nice plant

Pretty good article on different plant problems. We will keep this thread up high till someone can identify it.

just a fast update, i watered my plants ( a little more that usual) the soil had very little moisture considering i watered yesterday, they have perked up a bit.

okay so my plants could use a little more water, but would that really cause such rapid yellowing?

i was also wondering could this be an o2 problem, i just put a cup of water in my grow room, probably increasing oxygen in the room, could this be a problem?
i know many ppl leave opem water by the plants.

Repot them into some decent potting soil without time release fertiliser capsules and get rid of that crap you're using.

If you don't know what you're doing - DONT add blood and bone meal or hen manure. If you don't know what they do - don't try and guess.

Stay away from anything with Miracle Gro on it.

ok, thanks, i just checked my plant , the process has stopped, i guess they just needed a little water, i have to say this plan is growing very fast for jack herer i think it may have been crossed seeing as i got it from a friends last grow.
